Which was not spent in The Land of Peanut Butter and Jelly:

Two slices of white sandwich bread
A generous slathering of Hellman's Mayo
Half a tin of King Oscar sardines
Two or three squirts of lemon juice
A thin slice of onion
Some crisp iceberg lettuce

It doesn't get much better than this.

But back to peanut butter, one of my favorites as a child was peanut butter,
crisp bacon, and a slice of onion.

You childhood was a lot better than mine, I think. Apart from
the normal PBJ and stuff, I also ate:

Ring bologna, ground in a standard hand-crank meat grinder, with
Miracle Whip
Sweet pickle relish
On squishy white bread

My grandfather liked:
Mild cheddar cheese (the orange stuff), ground up with
green pepper
Miracle whip
on squishy white bread

Since these spreads were kind of time-consuming to make, they
weren't featured all that often.

I still put sliced green, pimiento-stuffed olives in my tuna salad.
(Green olives made anything posh, dontcha know.) I also like
them mixed into cream cheese, with walnuts, stuffed into celery.

People really groan about this one, but my mom made the best jello
salad - it was lemon jello and it had whole apricots in it that had
first been cut in half, and then the center where the pit was was
stuffed with a mound of bacon/peanut butter, the halves put back
together, and suspended in the jello. I know it sounds awful,
horrible, 50s "Wow, Jello!" but man, I loved it.

Mmmmm! Sardines!!! I used to being a tin of sardines and some crackers
for my lunch in elementary school, and gross all the other kids out by
picking each sardine bu it's tail and lowering it into my mouth in a
very "I'm eating a little fishy!" way!

Your sardine sandwich sounds wonderful!

Egg salad sandwiches on plain white. Eggs were cheap and there were four
boys to feed so Mom used eggs a lot.

Nothing fancy... eggs, mayo and some salt and pepper. I still like it that
way.

Actually, that doesn't sound too bad. I used to eat sardines on
crackers with my dad while we watched the ballgame. My favorite
childhood sandwich was Oscar Mayer bologna on Wonder Bread with
mustard and potato chips. Mashed under one's palm, it was truly a
delicacy, lol.

It doesn't matter how fancy a sandwich can be, whatever our Mothers made for

That, too.

Sometimes we would have Miracle Whip, a well-blotted slice of pineapple,
and leaf of lettuce on white bread.

My all-time favourite - bread and butter, a chunk of *real* Cheddar
cheese, and pickled onions. I've loved that all the way back until I
was five years old, when I had it with the farmer in Cheddar.
Memories get locked into one's brain.

Oh, I don't know about that, Fleece. A radish sandwich is pretty good.
Sliced radishes between two buttered slices of Wonder Bread. Salt
lightly.

Slabs of buttered french bread with very thin slices of cheddar. Mmm.

White bread, dayglo Heinz mustard. That's it.

Peanut Butter and Bacon on toast!! I've never added onion but can
imagine it being good.
Now my classic sandwich as a kid was sliced pepperoni (good Italian dry
pepperoni) heated up in a frying pan so it gets hot and crispy, then
drained on paper towels. Toast some bread and schmear with peanut butter
and lay on the hot pepperoni. It gets so nice and gooey and wonderfully
spicy. Try it some time!

Most of the sandwiches my mother made were store bought bologna, olive
loaf, or some sort of chopped ham, maybe with mayo, Miracle Whip, or
that sandwich spread stuff, had mayo and what looked like pickle relish
in it, came from Kraft IIRC. Mostly on white bread, never saw whole
wheat when I was a kid. Ours was from the Fair Maid company in Beaumont,
TX. My mom worked nights there during WWII. Was later renamed Rainbow
Bread. Not bad for plain white bread. Rarely we would have toasted
cheese sandwiches or real ham. Dad loved mustard on white bread with
thick sliced bologna and a thick slice of onion. Used to wrap one or two
in wax paper and stick them in his hunting coat pocket. Carry them
around that way most of the day and then eat them. Yuck!

A lady who kept us in Florida gave us Campbell's Soup and "Maynayze"
sandwiches. (I have heard pretentious types call these big gorgeous
black women who babysat and cleaned in the early '60s "nannies," but I just
am not sure. What I do know: I loved mine. She had her friends over and they
did the boogaloo in the kitchen! This was maybe 1961-64. When she left, she
always said, "see you later alligator."

I'm not sure about that last part. My mother made what I called "egg
mortar", I made much better egg salad. I took over most of the cooking
by the time I was perhaps 8. My mothers cooking skills have improved
some in the years since I moved out and she didn't have a chef on hand.

Alex, who scandalizes people by making
Grilled Cheese sandwiches augmented with
dill pickle chips, or Sardines (with a dash
of wine vinegar).

Inquiry: Anybody make deep dish pizza in

Oh I loved open face radish sandwiches - 1 slice of bread. It was a
challenge to keep the radish slices from falling off the bread.

Also 1 slice of bread, slathered with Hellman's mayo and thick slices of
garden fresh tomatoes. I had that for lunch today.

My favorite sandwich was "sort of" a sandwich. Mom would slice some hard
salami (quartering the slices) and cheddar cheese, then we would
sandwich it between two Ritz crackers. We just sat there enjoying our
"mommy & me" time. Sometimes, we would have good dill pickles on the
side. I still love the thought of those "sandwiches", though I haven't
indulged in that guilty pleasure for many, many years. She also use to
make braunschweiger sandwiches that I loved. Again, I don't eat that
stuff anymore.

But it still makes me smile thinking about it.

I also enjoyed sardines, but we never did anything special other than
using a toothpick to pull them from the tin.

Worst sandwich: As a kid, she usually made our lunch because we couldn't
afford hot lunches in the cafeteria everyday. I grew a huge dislike for
plain cheese sandwiches when many times the cheese was old enough that
there were those crunchy, white crystals in it. I still remember the
texture. Blech. PB&J would have been a delicacy on those days.

Oh I loved open face radish sandwiches - 1 slice of bread. It was a
challenge to keep the small radish slices from falling off the bread as
I ate it.

Also 1 slice of bread, slathered with Hellman's mayo and thick slices of
garden fresh tomatoes is an old favorite. In fact, I had that for lunch
today on Pepperidge Farm thin sliced whole wheat bread.

For me, it was little open-faced sandwiches with but a single topping
each: slices of white bread (baguette or similar), smeared with a bit of
butter and topped with Hungarian salami, and French garlic sausage, and
black rye also smeared with butter and topped with smoked eel, smoked
halibut, and Kiel (or other Baltic) sprats. That used to be my
breakfast for many years.

Half a tin? I used the whole can. They made for messy sandwiches
since I used them whole, just as they came out of the can.

Heh. She said squirts. Heh.

My sandwich of the day was a pan grilled provolone, turkey pastrami,
roasted red pepper, and cream cheese with artichoke and spinach.
With 14 El Faro anchovy-stuffed olives and a virgin bloody Cesar:
Clamato, celery and cardamom powders (ground bi-weekly), sriracha,
and Worcestershire.

Not a childhood favorite, but sometimes, like yesterday, I get a
craving. On toast and, too lazy to run out just for lettuce, subbed
cabbage.

Its supposed to be Campbell's Tomato Soup with grilled cheese.

Then again I tired this a few weeks ago and the Tomato Soup was way
sweeter than I remember.

I used to make Wonder bread and Parkay margarine sandwiches when I was
very small.

My tastes have improved significantly now. Now occasionally, I'll
slice myself a nice thick slice of Panera Sourdough and drizzle olive
oil on it! ;-)

As a starving student there was a period when my standard dinner was
sardines and saltines, followed by quarter beer night.

Once, as an art project/joke I made a bunch of balony sandwiches with
the cheapest meat and bread. The only condiment was quotes from Oscar
Wilde. I hadn't had lunchmeat in years. Surprisingly tasty.
